Alexandra Daddario tops annual list of highest-paid actresses

In 2023 it looked like the actress’s spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, she was back on top. People With Money reports on Friday (April 3) that Daddario is the highest-paid actress in the world, pulling in an astonishing $96 million between March 2025 and March 2026, a nearly $60 million lead over her closest competition.

People With Money’s factors

In compiling this yearly list, the magazine considers factors such as upfront pay, profit participation, residuals, endorsements and advertising work.

The American actress-model has an estimated net worth of $275 million. She owes her fortune to smart stock investments, substantial property holdings, lucrative endorsement deals with CoverGirl cosmetics. She also owns several restaurants (the “Fat Daddario Burger” chain) in Washington, a Football Team (the “New York Angels”), has launched her own brand of Vodka (Pure Wonderdaddario - US), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Alexandra) and a fashion line called “Alexandra Daddario Seduction”.

The ranking is significant for many Alexandra fans, who have been waiting for her triumphant return to the glory days for what seems like a lifetime.
